Exact quest requirements
Prerequisite: The Flooded Archive
- 1 × Knight-Commander Olen laid to rest — kill objective
Quest text: Knight-Commander Olen held the Archive when it sank — drowned at his post rather than abandon it. Every warden learns his name with pride. Now the Drowned Signal has raised him as a puppet to guard the very door he died defending — a Deallocated thing wearing a hero's render. That shame ends, the Witness. Take four companions below and grant Olen the rest he earned.
